He looks off to the side at that announcement. God dammit, Protector. Did it have to be today? He makes a low amused sound and mutters, "If you'd said that yesterday, I would've volunteered."
He can't imagine that'll go well after today though. He still uh wants to go with him anyway. It makes his skin crawl to hear Luka worry about dying at that man's hands when he's going to have to go meet him later. Every inch of him says he should go, to protect him in case it goes poorly, but he doesn't know if that's the best idea right now. He hates this!
"The knights I've spoken to seem to have good intentions, as far as I can tell," he says after a beat. He doesn't know if Luka even wants his advice, but he figures he might as well say it while he can. He takes a deep breath after that though, letting the shift in mood come. He smiles and takes his hand off of Luka's finally, crossing them in his lap.

"I would love to hear you sing."
